Update: I was unfortunately not aware of Shamus Young's severe criticism of Fallout 3 available here to link in the original piece and I regret that. It dovetails rather nicely with what I've written and it's much better executed than my piece. I strongly recommend anyone...

This game was a major must have in my book.I loved the graphics very fun to play and nloved those big bosses.If you like games with aliens or monsters this is a must have for you.Think of it as the reallyt less talented version of halo 1 lol.I loved the guns but hated the dual gun wielding.WHO THE HELL CAN HOLD SMGS AT ONCE??!! AND ESSPECIALLY SHOTGUNS!!Thats just dam near impossible,But wait he can hold 2 shotguns possibly 12 gauge but cant hold dual pistols??!! geez taht was probly the worst decision on this game.But the best thing i thought was theere wasnt much healthin hard mode and it was extremely challenging.Now the bosses were deffinetly a pain in the butt esspecially because i used every bit of ammo i had in hard mode to kill it,let me tell you if you think this buy is hard wait till you fight the second version of him later in the game.I liked the story and also the actors they got for the voice overs (i think they thought who was in a alien show/movie(david ducovane) and the guy that looks like an alien(marlyin manson) into a video game good idea for the most part.Another flaw was the ending you escape the dammed base to easily.And how you walked away from once was Area 51 and is now a giant crop circle (i liked the crop circle part it was pretty cool)

And also i you actually listen and watch the videos you recover during the missions some of them are quite humerous

STILL DUAL WIELDING EVERY GUN EXCEPT FOR THE SNIPER RIFLE AND EVEN THE PISTOL IS REALLY FREAKING STUPID just to remind you still it is a cool game and if your into monsters muntants and aliens this is a must have
